Objectives: Growing evidence demonstrated that vitamin D levels had been linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in light of various extraskeletal effects. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the association of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level with the clinicopathological features and CKD progression in T2DM.

Methods: A total of 182 patients with T2DM with CKD stages 1 through 4 (G1–G4) were retrospectively included. Identification of the serum 25(OH)D level associated with CKD progression was executed by Kaplan–Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazards models. We further performed sensitivity analyses with a time-weighted average (TWA) of the serum 25(OH)D level in 75 participants to reinforce the findings.

Results: The median serum 25(OH)D level was 26 (IQR, 14; 39) nmol/L in the study participants. Median follow-up time was 42 months, during which 70 (38%) patients confronted CKD progression. Cumulative kidney outcomes were significantly higher in the lowest tertile of the serum 25(OH)D level in Kaplan–Meier analyses (P < 0.001). Consistently, the analyses of Cox proportional hazards regression models indicated a significantly greater risk for CKD progression in the lowest tertile of the serum 25(OH)D level compared with the highest tertile of the serum 25(OH)D level (P = 0.03). These relationships remained robust with further sensitivity analysis of data with TWA of the serum 25(OH)D level, showing an independent association between lower TWA of the serum 25(OH)D level and an unfavorable renal outcome in patients with T2DM with CKD.

Conclusions: Our findings demonstrated that patients with T2DM with a decreased 25(OH)D level had deteriorated renal function. Both lower levels of baseline and TWA of serum 25(OH)D were associated with an increased risk of CKD progression in patients with T2DM, which suggested that the long-term maintenance of optimal vitamin D levels from early in life might be associated with reduced future risk of CKD development in T2DM.

Diabetic Epidemic

  • Step back to 1994. Suppose an epidemic struck the United States, causing blindness, kidney failure, and leg amputations in steadily increasing numbers.
    Suppose that in less than a decade's time, the epidemic had victimized one out of every eight people
    That epidemic is real, and its name is diabetes, now the nation's sixth leading cause of death.
